About Penn State Health Holy Spirit Medical Center

Penn State’s Holy Spirit Medical Center has a behavioral health clinic in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. They have outpatient and inpatient programs for medical and mental health. Since 1971, they’ve been serving adults and teens. Among their programs are tracks for Spanish speakers and the LGBTQ+ community.

The residential program is intended for clients ages 4 and older. Depending on your age group, you’ll have a specific track. In all programs, you’ll have therapy, but teens ages 14 and older, along with adults, may be eligible for electroconvulsive therapy. If you’re still in school, they’ll coordinate your care with your educators so you won’t fall behind. The behavioral health department may coordinate your care with other hospital branches, including surgery and primary care, if needed.

When you complete the inpatient program, you’ll downscale to an outpatient program. There are different options, depending on your condition. A day program is available to adults along with an eating disorder track for kids and teens. In contrast, a more traditional outpatient program provides cognitive behavioral therapy and classes to manage your anger and stress. Specific options include anxiety and sleep medicine for children and a geriatrics course for seniors.

Holy Spirit has a wide range of services. However, several past clients have left mixed reviews. Check out their feedback to make sure it’s a good fit for your needs.

Really disappointed with how this hospital provided care to my mom. After spending 8 hours in the ER and now transported to the main hospital, we still have no answers. We constantly have to ask for updates on the results of her scans, bloodwork, etc. For some reason, they don t feel the need to share info on procedures. They still have not made any changes or discovered anything different than what we walked in knowing. Front desk people made us feel like we were interrupting something and the nurses gave us a hard time with my grandma spending the night. Don t go here

My 81 year old mother was there for 11 days, and her care was poor at best. She tested positive for the flu and was told she had pneumonia. She was then told she didn't have pneumonia. It was back and forth for days regarding her health. She didn't have a shower or a bath during her entire stay. When she was finally transported to a rehabilitation facility, the hospital did a terrible job keeping the family abreast of her departure time. I wouldn't recommend this hospital to anyone. She also worked there for 20+ years.

I was taken there by ambulance. The ER dept was great. After having a stent put in I was taking the cardiac. I'll see you. Josh was my care rested nurse. Him and his team did a phenomenal job. I would highly recommend anybody that needs anything heart related to go there. I just want to say Josh. I appreciate all you did. You made the visit pleasant

Accepted Insurance

Penn State Health Holy Spirit Medical Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
inpatient iconInpatient
Inpatient rehab provides clients with an opportunity to focus solely on their sobriety away from the stressors of the home and workplace. Clients receive housing, food, and intensive clinical supervision. They also typically engage in multiple addiction counseling sessions each week, including daily individual, group, and/or family sessions. Most programs also prioritize recovery-focused life skills training, including courses in relapse prevention. Many facilities offer evidence-based holistic therapies, such as yoga and meditation.
heart-hands iconIntervention Services
Intervention services bring extensive experience to the planning and conducting of drug interventions in Pennsylvania. These experts can facilitate interventions in a sensitive manner that encourages positive outcomes. The goal of the intervention is to educate the individual about addiction and the consequences of their substance use and encourage them to get the treatment they need. Interventions can be effective with all types of drugs and alcohol addiction.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
With a partial hospitalization program (PHP), you can participate in intensive rehabilitation treatment with the ability to return home at the end of the day. For a weekly minimum of 20 hours, a partial hospitalization program can take place up to 5 days a week for an average of 90 days. During PHP treatment, you can receive relapse prevention strategies, medication management, individual and group therapy, and other behavioral therapy interventions.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
A medical detox is the safest way to wean your body off drugs and/or alcohol in an inpatient setting. When detoxing from addictive substances, the physical and psychological side effects of withdrawal can cause mood swings, anxiety, nausea, or flu-like symptoms. In medically assisted detox, a team of medical professionals are on hand 24/7 to help alleviate potential withdrawal symptoms, administer medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms, and ultimately keep you safe and comfortable throughout this process.

Treatments

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Dialectical behavior therapy in Pennsylvania is an evidence based technique that involves group therapy, individual therapy, and phone coaching. Group sessions focus on learning behavioral skills. Individual therapy gives you the opportunity to apply what you're learning to your personal situations. Phone coaching allows you to call your therapist during the week for help with challenging situations.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Motivational interviewing in Pennsylvania gives you the opportunity to share your perspective and explore your ideas and motivation for change. Your therapist will walk you through the four steps of engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning to empower you to make any desired changes in your life.

It is important to process the impact that traumatic experiences have had on your life. During trauma therapy, you and an experienced therapist confront these experiences and the emotional impact it is had. This helps to reduce your symptoms of stress and anxiety and improve your overall mental health and well being.

Ok I'm not EVEN sure where to even start !!!... I was in the ER last night for severe mouth pain as I had oral surgery couple days ago. I sat there for a while but that's expected of course it's a ER. I went to this room by the Trama center and the student not even a doctor or a nurse wanted to inject a needle in my mouth and I thought no WAY right BUT considering the pain I'm in this is better then nothing. That's the only option he gave me period. So MR. Steven McNealWent got the needle and what not and my husband is there watching him NEVER put gloves on when he touched that needle. THEN he pushed that needle so far up there that it was pain I have NEVER experience !!!! I screamed and cried and started shaking from this pain!!!... My husband got extremely upset and said is it prosscedure to first not put gloves on when you touch a needle and 2 to HURT a patient in that manner?? It gets BETTER!!!When he pit that needle in my mouth he wasn't even MAN enough to put any medicine through it to numb me!!!. Just stuck it up there as far as he could !!!... If it was for me jumping back from him he would hurt me alot more. SHAME ON YOU Steven McNEAL !!! . God has a special place for you!!... As for the head nurse ( Aubrey Jacobson) My husband went and got you to help !!.. What she do people looked at me as I'm crying and shaking and said well here is a number to call... Well now I'm damaged in my mouth more. I WENT and got another perfessional to see it and confirm that YES you were caused more injury in your mouth.... So I guess the NEWS ROOM is next ect.... I will not REST on this EARTH till you both PAY for what you have done to me. !!!... I'm WARNING YOU ALL do NOT be seen by these people!!!...

The worst hospital experience I have ever had. I just had a left shoulder replacement,. The pain was excruciating. The nursing staff is incompetent Forget, pressing that red buzzer They may show up in 30 minutes! They were giving me basic over-the-counter meds for severe post operative pain. In addition, It was kind of like being at the international bazaar. They were all farm. And no one could understand me and I couldn t understand them.

If you find yourself with a dislocated shoulder and need it to be reset, avoid this place like the plague. Showed up at 8:00 pm. 2 doses of fentanyl, a dose of Valium, and 7 hours later, I leave with major ligament damage that required reconstructive surgery due to the PSYCHOTIC nurse s insistence on yanking on my shoulder for hours and refusing to call in the on-call orthopedist who managed to reset it in 30 seconds at 3:00 am. I wish I was joking or exaggerating.

Will never go back again. Went to the ER was in excruciating pain for 8 days straight. Did a bloodwork and a CT scan and couldn t find anything so they sent me home in excruciating pain. Once I looked over my bloodwork at home several tests were not in the normal ranges that they should be, come to find out by my doctor I was severely dehydrated. They should have given me IV fluids and NEVER send me home while still in severe pain with no drugs to help. Not to mention my blood pressure was 184/112 when they sent me home. I never saw a doctor only a nurse. This is unacceptable. Especially when I m a struggling parent with a $400 copay and got no answers along with being sent home where I could have had a heart attack or stroke. Do better Holy Spirit Hospital!

This is was our 1st time at this particular Penn State Hospital. I was a little nervous after reading the reviews on how things were going to go. My father was admitted having had surgery on his broken neck, he s 90 . I can not say enough good about the staff from everyone at the OR, during his stay and the food service.. the nursing staff was incredibly patient with him as he can be difficult..A big thank you to everyone for making this as pleasant of an experience under the circumstances
